The fantasy playoffs are right around the corner. Now is the time to make free agent moves to secure must-win late-season victories, or beef up your bench for the postseason run.

FAAB denotes Free Agent Acquisition Budget

Russell Gage (WR) Atlanta Falcons (8% FAAB) – Still available in over three-quarters of ESPN fantasy leagues, Gage has averaged nine targets per game over Atlanta’s past three contests and just had a season-best 11 grabs and 130 yards against Tampa. Gage is unquestionably Atlant’s No. 1 wideout and offers weekly WR3 value.

Ricky Seals-Jones (TE) Washington Football Team (7% FAAB) – Logan Thomas‘s return to the lineup didn’t last long. With Thomas projected to be back on the shelf for an extensive amount of time…

Week 13: Def vs WR Matchups Report (yardage allowed to WR1s, WR2s, WR3s)

December 2, 2021 Scott Atkins

This Fantasy Football tool shows you how well (or how poorly) each pass defense is performing against each position this NFL season.

RECEIVING YARDS ALLOWED BY POSITION

This new featured tool displays how each defense performs against their opponent’s receiving yardage gained by position.

So for example, if you see a team is ranked 1st vs. WR #1, that defense is currently the best at limiting their opponent’s WR #1 yardage compared to other teams. Or if you see a team is ranked 32nd against WR #2, that defense is the worst against WR #2’s or more accurately, the defense is allowing the most yards to WR #2’s compared to the other teams in the league. This a great tool to find and exploit useful matchups. Don’t forget to check out all the positions as well (WR #1, WR #2, Other WRs, TE & RB).

Last Thursday was a bit overwhelming, with three games filling up an entire day. Week 13 sees a return to normalcy as the Dallas Cowboys travel to New Orleans in our primetime showdown.

This will be the Cowboys’ second consecutive Thursday tilt and the Cowboys, losers of three of their last four games. For Dallas to get back into the conversation as the NFC’s top team they need to quickly right the ship.

New Orleans has been even worse, losing four straight and falling out of the wild-card chase. In an effort to right the ship, Sean Payton has made a quarterback change, but will it be enough to save the Saints’ season?

Fantasy Football Waiver Wire: Week 13

The Thanksgiving slate certainly had more than its fair share of drama and unexpected performances but out of that chaos comes opportunity. A slew of injuries has opened the door for several key free agent players that might be available on your league’s waiver wire.

Here are the key free agent players to target ahead of Week 13, with remaining FAAB recommendations.

FAAB denotes Free Agent Acquisition Budget 

Alexander Mattison (RB) Minnesota Vikings (75% FAAB) – Odds are that Mattison is already rostered in your league, but if he happens to be available, Mattison offers league-winning upside down the stretch. Mattison has routinely shined in the featured role when given opportunities and should have multiple weeks to star as Davlin Cook is sidelined multiple weeks by shoulder injuries. If Mattison is available in your league, be prepared to make an aggressive bid to add a potential RB1 to your roster.

Chuba Hubbard (RB) Carolina Panthers (55% FAAB) – Like the Vikings, the Panthers also lost their starting running back, this time Christian McCaffrey for the remainder of 2021. When CMC miss several weeks earlier this season, Hubbard did a fine job in relief, averaging 12.9 PPR points per start. At this point…

Traditionally the Week 12 slate has always been one of the most anticipated of the season. In many leagues, Week 12 marks the trade deadline, but normally falling on Thanksgiving, it also means an entire Thursday filled with food, family, friends, and football.

With three games filling up the entire day, we must take a different approach in our usual Thursday Night Football preview. For this week, I’ll take a broad look at all three games and make my favorite picks for each game.

Things haven’t been easy this year, so please take the time to be appreciative for what you still have, and the things that truly matter in life besides football. We wish you the happiest of Thanksgivings and hope you’re able to enjoy a full day’s worth of pigskin with those that mean the most.

Chicago Bears (-3) at Detroit Lions; over/under 41

The opening game of the slate isn’t exactly the most desirable, but there’s still plenty of fantasy ramifications on the line. Rumors are swirling that this could be Matt Nagy’s last game of the helm for Chicago, but it seems odd to let a coach prepare a team to play if his fate’s already decided and the team is still technically in the playoff hunt. It would also go against the 100-plus year history of the franchise never dismissing a coach mid-season.

Detroit won’t part ways with Dan Campbell this week but the league’s only winless team still has plenty of questions- like who will be under center?
